I got my email from UPS confirming that mine will be here tomorrow. My payment came out on the 8th. So maybe he'll be shipping more out on Monday. Good thing is they are only taking 2-3 days to ship.

I haven't ordered one from him lately, but when I did, I never received notification of shipping. It just showed up on my doorstep one day.

Got mine yesterday, put it in a few minutes ago and just drove it to go fill it up with 93..... All I can say is it is........

......AWESOME!

My rev limiter should be moved to 5k - not pushing it past a touch over 4k - it just sounds better for video purposes, etc. to be able to hit 4k without the limiter noise, but I'm still not going to pass where the stock limiter was.

Speed limiter, I'll have to test later!

The trans shift points are wonderful and crisp, and the responsiveness of the pedal is great!

All I can say is it's worth the wait, but one issue I have is Will didn't include any instructions, now I didn't really hit any issues besides trying to get the air intake snorkel back on and attached, but other than that it was basically straight forward.

A neat trick that Will does with his tunes.

Turn your AC on and go on the highway. Then push the throttle down all the way and watch how the AC shuts off until you go halfway on the throttle or let off.

He does that so your car gets every little bit of power during WOT. It's such a great tuning trick!

I'll test it out later tonight - I did have him set it to only shut off once I pass 4500 RPMs , so basically only when I'm really getting on it, because I have heard that Will's standard past half throttle shut-off can sometimes be annoying.

I guess if you are constantly racing from stoplight to stoplight and it shuts off all the time... haha

Glad you like it. I LOVED the one I had him do for my LS. It made a world of difference. I'm going to have him do one for my SS shortly.

Finally got my tracking number, should be in next tuesday!!

Very excited, especially after reading what Mike 00LS said. Only thought is I should have had him set my AC shutoff like yours, past 4500 RPM. Living in Florida, i really won't like it when it shuts off..
